Trust is the oxygen of all human relationships. How can you live well and step into the future when you keep stumbling over trust issues?

It's about developing the stability you long for within yourself and with God, so you don't become cynical and carry a broken belief system into every new relationship. In a world where so many things feel alarming, this book will give you a peace that isn't dependent on unpredictable people, circumstances, and experiences. Instead, it offers practical and biblical ways to make real progress toward healthier perspectives, relationships, and a future you can authentically look forward to.

Do anxieties ambush you before your head even hits the pillow? TerKeurst helps you quiet those fearful thoughts by incorporating God's Word into your nightly routine! In this calming devotional, she'll help you release the heaviness you feel about hard situations in your life---so you can wake up refreshed and face the next day with courage. 

Is your mind stuck in overdrive because you repeatedly play back others' offenses? Follow TerKeurst to life-giving freedom! Sharing a step-by-step plan to help you let go of bound-up resentments, she'll teach you what the Bible says about forgiveness, how to disempower triggers hijacking your emotions, move on if a person refuses to change, and more.

Growing up brings change, and change triggers fears. How do kids learn that in the midst of these uncomfortable times, they don't have to be afraid? Little Seed and Little Fox are facing fears, changes, and brand new things. And they don't like it one bit! Through this unlikely friendship, children will discover that no matter how new or fearful their circumstances, God is always with them. Just as Little Seed and Little Fox learn to trust that the Farmer is good and kind, children will also learn to trust God.

Noteworthy: This author is one of a special group of women who writes for (in)courage, the popular online friendship community. Every day they take turns pulling up a chair to share their stories of what Jesus looks like in their every day, gloriously ordinary, and often messy lives.
